    Sounds good Bill. Thought about the mobility kit, I doubt I'll move it around once set, but it looked handy. I'll probably add an extension down the road.

    The motor whine was quieter, but still very much there and at a level that is unacceptable. I was over at a club members shop not too long ago who has a PM and there was no sounds like this coming...
